Granita Al Caffè
Bold, bittersweet, and irresistibly chilled: granita al caffè is the coffee-lover’s answer to summer heat. Made with strong espresso and sugar, it’s the perfect icy pick-me-up, especially when topped with a spoonful of whipped cream.
Ingredients
- 350 ml water
- 100 g white sugar
- 200 ml freshly brewed espresso
Instructions
- Place the water and sugar in a saucepan, bring to a boil, and let it simmer for about 5 minutes to create a syrup.
- Add the coffee to the saucepan and stir.
- Pour the mixture into a baking tray deep enough to hold the liquid and place it in the freezer.
- Once fully frozen, cut it into sqaures.
- When ready to serve, blend a few squares at a time until smooth and slushy. Enjoy your granita al caffè as is or add some whipped cream on top!
